Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: When the car was still only a few months old, i began to experience brake shudder in the streering wheel when slowing down and stopping. returned car to dealer for brake related complaint. they turned only front rotors. refused to even look at rears. returned again a few months later for same problem. service manager said rotors were within factory specs and refused to do anything about it. thrid time into dealer, rotors were turned again. this is the 4th time i have this problem. car is beginning to shudder badly when braking. calls to dealership owner unreturned. call to pontiac customer service led to absolutely no offer of help or resolution. my pontiac case no. is 99050789. there is already a tsb on brake problems on all 1998 f-bodies, that is camaro and firebird models. gm should be forced to replace under warranty. it is not safe to turn the rotors anymore. i need some help here.
